Sitagliptin and Bactrim drug interactions - a phase IV clinical study of FDA data
Summary:
Drug interactions are reported among people who take Sitagliptin (sitagliptin) and Bactrim (sulfamethoxazole; trimethoprim). Common drug interactions include asthenia among females and leukopenia among males.
The phase IV clinical study analyzes what interactions people have when they take Sitagliptin and Bactrim. It is created by eHealthMe based on reports of 33 people who take the same drugs from the FDA, and is updated regularly.
